Merci beaucoup
Today millions of Americans are spending the day with relatives, eating far too much food, and preparing for the upcoming holiday season (though if the appearance of holiday-themed stuff in stores is any indication, the holiday season actually started about three months ago...).
My family is no exception. First we drove three and a half hours to my mother-in-law's house to pick her up, then we drove another hour and a half to her brother's house. Yes, it was a lot of driving, but the good company and the good eats made it all worthwhile. Plus, I wove in the last ends on my latest project--my first moebius scarf! (more on that later)--en route, so that was a nice bonus to the day for me.
I brought along yarn for a new project (a kimino-style sweater for Sylvia in Green Mountain Spinnery's Cotton Comfort) but forgot to bring a toilet-paper roll. D'oh! So I ended up winding one skein by hand before dinner. The yarn is fine enough that the ball is pretty compact and seems tight, though, so I'm optimistic that it will hold together.
